Lightweight, responsive, propulsive, race-ready

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely loved the SC Elite v6! They arrived on Friday, and I raced my first run in them that Sunday at the Buenos Aires Half Marathon. They felt incredibly lightweight, comfortable and responsive, with a great propulsive feel. I also tested them on short intervals afterwards, confirming those sensations.

Lighter plus

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They felt much lighter to me than the previous version, but I haven't been able to test them in a race yet. I'll do that at the NY Marathon.

Stable, fast and comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I´ve been using these shoes for both road and trail running, and I´m very impressed whit their stability and comfort. They feel fast and responsive while still providing excellent support. I´ve run long sessions in them whit no joint discomfort, and they have performed really well across different surfaces. A great combination of performance, stability and comfort.

Excellent carbon plated shoes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These may be my new favorite version of the SuperComp Elite. They are noticably lighter than the previous version, with weight taken off the fabric and bottom. They feel stable and the carbon plate seems to extend wider through the tip of the shoe as compared to previous versions. You can physically see the plate through the gap in the midsole. I would not recommend them on a course with acorns or loose rocks, as they are easily lodged into the bottom of the shoe. They also do not seem to have much traction, but this did not create a problem for any road races I used these shoes for. I ran in these for a 10k and will likely wear them for an upcoming marathon as well.

Light, Fast and Responsive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] put these shoes to the test running with my prosthesis, and I was impressed. They felt light, responsive, and fast without feeling unstable. That balance is especially important for me because I need a shoe that works well on both my sound side and my running prosthesis. The cushioning felt great underfoot, and the shoe gave me a smooth transition through each stride. I also loved that I could run comfortably in them without feeling like I was fighting the shoe. These are definitely a pair I would reach for when I want to pick up the pace.

Good racer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I like the shoe. I find them comfortable (because I sized up) and while I’ve only completed one race in them, I think they’re good racers. I prefer a higher stack for my typical racing shoe, which is lacking here. I’d rather deal with some extra weight to gain some more propulsion. I also don’t love the bottom having no tread pattern. Not sure if the weight of the V5 was a complaint, but I feel unsafe wearing these V6 in any conditions other than dry pavement.

Comfortable, responsive, and ready for race day

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It feels cushioned and responsive, with a smooth transition through each stride. The fit feels secure without being restrictive. My favorite feature is the balance between comfort and a propulsive feel—a combination I really appreciate during longer, faster efforts.

Light and fast

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the SC Elite v6. They’re super lightweight and feel really fast, but the fit is narrower than what I’m used to, so I’m still getting used to them. I think I just need a little more time to adjust to the fit.

Great update

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the 3rd iteration of the super comps that I’ve gotten and they keep being great. They’re comfortable at an easy pace and accelerate quickly. I’m curious to see how they hold up because the top is very light
